- WalterBright 7y agoI decided early on that my goal was to graduate with honors. I knew how much work that entailed, did that, got the grades, and graduated with honors. I made the right decision, it worked for me. I didn't do any begging or ass kissing, and still had time to enjoy the other pursuits being in college afforded.
